[laughter] ♪ ♪ lou: good evening, everybody. all of the rhetorical venom of the democratic party, it turns out, amounts to nothing. because it appears there is absolutely nothing now that they can do to stop president trump from nominating and the senate confirming his nominee to the supreme court. senators cory gardner, chuck grassley and even mitt romney all announcing they will back whomever president trump nominates to the high court. and president trump said today he will announce his choice for the high court saturday. president trump also reiterating his selection will be a woman

and that there is ample time for the senate to confirm his nominee before the election. >> i'm more than hopeful. i think it's going to happen. we have great people. we haven't made the final determination, i haven't, but i will be soon. but we have fantastic, very talented, very brilliant people, and we'll make a decision by saturday. i'm going to announce it on saturday, and i think everybody's going to be very happy. we have a lot of time. we have nothing but time. especially since we have the support, you know, we have senatorial support. people have come out, and i guess we have all the votes we're going to need, and they're going to be very happy with the candidate. they know most of the candidates anyway. i think they know many -- all of the candidates. and we have great support, great support from the people also. lou: as president trump and senate majority leader mitch mcconnell move the president's nominee forward in this

confirmation process, the radical dems have become ever more threatening and thuggish in their conduct, and they now appear totally unhinged. the party of hate ominously threatening retaliation of all kinds, some threatening to abolish the electoral college that's not within their power as things stand now, and some want to pack the supreme court with more justices. that is also not within their power. and where is the democrat party presidential nominee in all of this? china joe biden is not saying. his handlers, apparently, are still working on an answer for the nominee. then there's radical dem senator amy klobuchar, pragmatic and straightforward, she managed to make a stellar argument for swiftly confirming president trump's choice to join the supreme court. this is what she tweeted. the people pick the president,

the president nominates the justice. that is how it works. a very simple constitutional answer. joining us tonight to take all of this up, the vice president of the united states, vice president mike pence, who tonight joins us from gilford, new hampshire. mr. president, first, welcome. and i'd like to begin with what we were talking about, the supreme court nomination. how do you feel upon learning that the senate majority leader has the votes to confirm the choice by the president, whomever she may be? >> well, let me first say we just are so grateful that remoneys in the senate, almost -- republicans in the senate, almost all of them, have stepped forward and recognized that the president of the united states has a duty under the constitution to appoint what the

constitution describes as judge withs to the supreme court -- judges to the supreme court. and this coming saturday after we properly honor the life and public service of justice ruth bader ginsburg, president donald trump will announce a woman who will be the next great, principled conservative on the supreme court. and as we said here in -- as we said here in new hampshire today the, we're going to fill that seat. lou: well, mr. vice president, you talk about honoring as you are, as the president has insisted honoring the service of ruth bader ginsburg. are the democrats not sullying her legacy as they have been making outrageous threats surrounding the majority leader's house with protesters and demonstrators, carrying out some of the most ugly, vicious threats that one can imagine from packing the court to street

violence? what do you think? >> well, i think you make a great point because one of the, one of the aspects of justice ginsburg's career was her civility. she was very close to the late justice antonin scalia, and history records that they agreed on very little in terms of judicial philosophy, lou, but they were friends, their families were friends. our labor secretary wrote about that just a few short days ago. but, look, i mean, we know that joe biden and the democratic party have been overtaken by the radical left, and the outrage that we're seeing, the absurd assertions, i mean, literally you've heard leaders in the democratic part from nancy pelosi on down talking about impeaching the president or our attorney general to slow the process down. and just south of here in new

hampshire we saw one prominent democrat say in a tweet, he said if the president fills the seat in 2020, we pack the court in 2021. look, the american people are tired of it, they know this is, this is a time when we all ought to be focused on honoring the life and service of justice ginsburg. and i think the vast majority of the american people outside the radical left understand the responsibility the president has. in fact, president trump really believes it's an obligation to appoint a new justice to the supreme court. and, lou, history records -- despite all of their objections -- that there have been 29 vacancies on the supreme court of the united states since the founding of the republic. and from george washington all the way through barack obama, american presidents have made 29

appointments in those 29 vacancies during election years. so president trump is going to do his duty, and with the news from capitol hill today of the support of republicans in the senate, almost all of them, we have every confidence that when the president unveils the remarkable woman and jurist that he will announce this coming saturday, that we're going to fill that seat, and we're going to add one more principled conservative to the supreme court of the united states. lou: i'd like to get your reaction to two points of view. one, senator ted cruz -- who i think put out a cogent and absolutely correct historical statement about the urgency of moving ahead before the election with this nomination and vote because of the atmosphere, the highly-charged partisan divide that grips this country right now and the view of, apparently,

the senate majority leader that he is not yet ready to say he wants to move this to a vote before the election. the inference being that he wants some sort of leverage for those senators who are in very tight races in which he apparently has made a judgment that would be helpful to them. i'd like to get can your view on that, because you're the man who will be deciding if there is a tie at any point in whatever is to be voted on in the senate on scotus and any other issue in this highly-charged atmosphere. >> well, look, lou, the president has a duty under article ii of the constitution to appoint a new justice to the supreme court. but we respect the role of the senate to advise and consent, but look, president trump truly believes that the senate how shd

move thoroughly, thoughtfully and quickly and move to consideration a hearing, if need be and, ultimately, to a floor vote. we have major issues in the country today, and, you know, lou, with a all of the talk about universal unsolicited mail-in balloting where we see states around the country that are now extending the deadline -- lou: right. >> -- there is a possibility that election issues may come before the supreme court in the days following the election, and all the more reason why we should have nine justices on the supreme court to be able to resolve any issues that may arise then or on any other matter. so the american people expect us to do our job. president trump, i know, is going through a process of evaluating potential nominees as we speak. the president will make that decision, he'll make the announcement of the woman that he'll be nominating to the supreme court, and and we're

just going to continue to work closely with the republicans in the senate. and maybe a democrat or two that might see their way clear as a few have in the past to support the president's nominee to the supreme court of the united states with. but we believe we should move, we should move thoughtfully, thoroughly and quickly and move to a vote on the floor of the senate. lou: the strong case that you make is that that ninth justice certainly may be needed given all that is happening with the mailing, with the distribution of 80 million ballots already out to people who did not solicit them or ask for them and for which there is no safeguard for the integrity of our election. the postal service, as nancy pelosi referred to it as election central, is a frightening prospect if since it's not only postal central

right now, capable of carrying out its responsibilities to deliver mail exwe can dishesly and on time -- expeditiously and on time. to introduce an election to put in the hands of the postal service seems to be, to some of us, utter madness. >> well, lou, let's be very clear to all of your viewers, absentee balloting and voting is a time-honored tradition in this country. that's where an american will request a ballot, there's signature verification, and we fully support absentee voting. but what you see states around the country doing is authorizing universal mail-in voting where they're literally mailing ballots to everybody on the lust unsolicited. and then in many of those same states, they're authorizing what's called vote harvesting that would allow people to go and literally collect ballots, and it just creates a tremendous opportunity for fraud. it's one of the reasons why we've headed to courthouses around the country to challenge

what we think would be a real threat to the basic integrity of the vote. and remember, that one person, one vote principle is at the very heart of our democracy, and the president and i are going to stand for that, we're going to stand for vote integrity. but in the event that there are issues and controversies that arise in our courts that go to the supreme court, it's just one more reason why the president is moving is so deliberately in making a decision about who he will nominate to the supreme court and why we're going to continue to urge members of the united states senate to move forward, to move forward quickly, to advise and consent and to vote to fill that seat on the supreme court of the united states. lou: and that one person, one vote principle is the bedrock of democracy. it means a person who is registered to vote and not a

phantom vote based on the harvesting of votes by either party. as we wrap up here, mr. vice president, your thoughts about where the ticket stands in this campaign for re-election, how do you feel about it, and what are the polls telling you? >> well, i have to tell you, i'm in new hampshire today, and the enthusiasm is greater here -- [cheers and applause] than it was in 2016, lou. and i see that all over the country. and really, if you remember 2016, it was about promises made. 2020's about promises kept. i mean, as we talked in new hampshire today, you know, this is a president who said he'd rebuild our military, revive our economy through tax cuts, rolling back regulation, fighting for fair trade that you've been is such a voice for for so many years on the airwaves. we've stood up for our values and our constitutional liberties, and in our first

three years president trump delivered on every promise that he made to the american people, and he's led our nation through the channeling time of this year. and -- challenging time of this year. and we literally are on track to have the first coronavirus available anywhere in the world before the end of this year. and while today we passed a heartbreaking milestone -- and our hearts are with all the families that have lost loved ones in the midst of this pandemic -- i'm absolutely convinced as the leader of the white house coronavirus task force that because of president trump's early action -- suspending all travel from china, launching the greatest national mobilization since world war ii, reinventing testing, seeing to the delivery and manufacturing of hundreds of millions of supplies and driving toward developing medicines and vaccines -- i'm absolutely convinced that despite the heartbreaking losses that we've experienced that we as americans with this president have literally saved hundreds of thousands of american lives.

so it's been about the president's leadership are, it's been about promises kept, and we came close in new hampshire in 2016. but i, i believe with all my heart that new hampshire and america are going to vote for four more years of president donald trump in the white house on november the 3rd. [cheers and applause] lou: well, it's quite a ticket, mr. vice president. the trump/pence ticket has done pretty well. it'll be interesting to see november 3rd. we appreciate it. thanks so much. and good luck. up next, mini mike bloomberg is trying to buy votes in florida. is he some kind of oligarch? you better believe he is. we take it up with congressman matt gaetz. and my new book is published as of today.

lou: breaking news now, north carolis become the late state to extend mail-in voting deadlines. that's right, another extension. the state's board of elections creating brand new rules that will allow the count of all ballots postmarked by election day and received up to nine days after the election. the board is also permitting voters to correct any errors in rejected ballots and also establishing ballot dropoff stations. so if you're going to vote, boy, this seems like the way to do it, huh? well, breaking tonight, failed presidential candidate

and oligarch michael bloomberg using some of his money -- very little of his money -- to buy influence in the 2020 election. bloomberg, well, raising $20 million. that was probably just simply a cough into the atm, to help felons regain their voting rights in the state of florida. bloomberg has already done so for 32,000 felons in the crucial ballotground state. -- battleground state. well, the justice department blocking senior department officials from testifying before jerrold nadler's house judiciary committee. the assistant attorney general, stephen boyd, told nadler that the committee squandered its opportunity to talk with the attorney general and ask more questions because of the way the democrats treated attorney general william barr at that hearing in july. it was an abject disgrace. well, joining us tonight, or congressman matt gaetz, member

of the house judiciary and armed services committees. he's also, well, he's an author as well and has a new book out today which means it's a great, it's a great book because they wait for this day to publish great books. it's called "firebrand: dispatches from the front lines of the maga revolution." we recommend it to you highly, and congratulations, congressman matt gaetz, on the publication of the book. great to have you with us. let's turn to judiciary, jerrold nadler, because there was nothing civil or respectful about the way the democrats on that committee treated the attorney general. i wouldn't have blamed him if he had opened an investigation on every one of them as attorney general. it was disgusting, what they did to him. great to see you. >> absolutely. well, it is frustrating after three years of nancy pelosi crowing about how donald trump

was doing great violence to our institutions to now see the democrats threatening impeachment to try to procedurally jam the senate to stop them from fulfilling their constitutional obligation to advise and consent on the president's selection for the supreme court. and so of course the administration's not going to participate in this game of red rover where they send officials over not for legitimate oversight or questioning with, but just to try to create a procedural setup to stop the country from doing its important business. and i'm glad you mentioned mike bloomberg's efforts in florida, because i will be calling on the florida attorney general to launch an investigation into mike bloomberg for potentially engaging in bribery and vote-buying in the state of florida. in florida you only get to vote if you're a convicted felon if all of your court costs, fines, fees and restitution are paid off. so what he's doing is creating a politically-motivated way to

retire the debts of these felons in exchange for their votes. and it's not every felon, it's just those which they have specifically identified as the biden voters. and so, again, that's offering a bribe and indunesment for someone -- inducement for someone to behave a certain way in voting. i think it's potentially criminal. it's probably the worst waste of money for michael bloomberg since he was a failed presidential candidate. lou: did he even rise to the level of failed presidential candidate? did he show up enough on whatever graph of support -- >> remember, they changed the rules to let him in the debates. i mean, michael bloomberg was engaged in a leveraged buyout of the democratic party. he didn't meet the rooms, but he got on the debate stage anyway, and he probably regretted it because elizabeth warren fed him into a wood chipper. they've been on the level, this isn't just advertising money, this is a specific inducement to a specific segment of voters to get them to vote a certain way,

and i think it could be a crime. lou: i wonder if he has enough money to get his appearance on that debate stage expunged for all time, but we'll find that out, i'm sure, later. you proposed yesterday that murkowski and collins, the two, well, i guess you would call them the hamlet sisters of the senate who just really don't like being republican, yet they take republican money, and they have an r next to their names. and i want to credit you. when you said the party should just simply throw them the hell out, i thought that was just a terrific idea. what was the reaction to your proposal? >> well, i don't know that leader mcconnell takes his ps and qs from me, but i think that if we want to be a successful, enduring movement, the type that i write about in my book, "firebrand," with we

actually have to have people who are willing to confront their duties. and it's my view that if a senator is going to reject their duty, voters ought to reject them. i'm sick and tired of president trump's voters being taken for granted. i think in alaska, maine and elsewhere if someone's not willing to do their job, well, maybe the voters ought to withhold their vote. i don't think that senators who respect willing to do their duty should be rewarded with political funds, with committee chairmanships or any other prized position in the leadership. if we did that, by the way, lou, it wouldn't just have a positive effect now, it would set a standard going forward where during the second term of this president we will actually back him and get stuff done. i'm so frustrated that when we had unified control of the government, we followed paul ryan off a cliff and didn't get immigration done, didn't get entitlement reform done, a lot of the things that the president wanted to see happen. now i think we've got to set the standard so that going forward we can achieve the full potential of this president.

lou: and get president trump reelected, i believe is the implicit thought there. >> certainly. lou: the book is "firebrand" by congressman matt gaetz. we recommend it to you, as i said, highly. congressman, come back soon. up next, you'll never guest who the city of seattle is paying to fine policing alternatives. no, i'm not talking about sheriffs, i'm talking about policing alternatives. only the left could come up with that term. we'll have that and more as we continue. stay with us. ♪ ♪ we love our new home. there's so much space. we have a guestroom now. but, we have aunts. you're slouching again, ted. expired, expired... expired. thanks, aunt bonnie. it's a lot of house. i hope you can keep it clean. at least geico makes bundling our home and car insurance easy. which helps us save a lot of money oh, teddy. did you get my friend request? uh, i'll have to check.

conflict of interest. a $7 million bribe being paid by burisma while hunter biden was on the board, they reported it to the fbi. that sounds like wrongdoing. third, there was a pressure campaign inside the obama state department and in the white house invoking hunter biden's name and trying to pressure the u.s. government to make the burisma corruption allegations go away before the 2016 election ended. and then finally, it wasn't just the state department learning about hunter biden, the treasury department flagged several transactions, foreign money falling into companies connecting into hunter biden. usually the first step in what might launch a money laundering investigation. those are four things that will almost certainly be in the report tomorrow, and that sounds a lot different than that storyline the democrats gave us back last fall. lou: yeah, it sure, it sure does. and while that report can be out in the next 24 hours, can you

match the -- [laughter] the flare of that announcement with an announcement on whether or not john durham is bringing charges and a report soon? >> you know, i think the attorney general -- i talk the attorney general at his word because everything he has said has come to pass. he said before the election we would get an accounting and that criminal charges are still on the table. everything i'm hearing is that that is still true. however, the investigation has slowed to some degree. i know that's very frustrating to people who want accountability, and i think beyond what we will see, and i think we will see some revelations in the next couple of weeks, but i think you should assume that john durham has a longer haul to go on this investigation before all work is done. that's going to be frustrating to people, and that makes this election all the more important because if democrats get control, i think john durham will be sent back to connecticut, and we won't hear anything more about this. lou: well, if that's the case, then it's entirely possible that

the dems have again stolen another election, because this is an important component. and if that is the case, the american people, there is no reason to respect anything in this government whatsoever. it's outrageous. your thoughts as you, you get the last word on this one. >> listen, it's funny, the trump administration has the ability to release all these documents, and yet the bureaucrats have been able to thwart that time and again at the state department, at the justice department, at the fbi. the president's own administration has been one of the reasons why this has been slow-walked, because the bureaucrats own more of the government than the people who are elected to run it. lou: can the president release these documents and declassify everything associated with obamagate? >> ric grenell showed in four weeks what can be done when someone takes control. i've suggested for a long time

the president start a transparency office in the white house, give that person incredible power. we can do it in weeks. we know what documents ought to be made public, but the bureaucrats keep them locked up. lou: and i think you just mentioned the name that should have that office, ric grenell. [laughter] >> he certainly could. [inaudible conversations] lou: absolutely. john solomon, thanks so much. we appreciate it. before we go to break, want to tell you my new book is out today and recommend to -- it to you highly. "the trump century." it is a book i would hope that every american would have the opportunity to read before making up their minds to vote in this election. this is a president who has achieved remarkable and historic things and will do much, much more. go to our store,
